Thank you - that quote box makes things much, much easier.  It keeps me from having to comb through each thread and tally votes.

Could you mark down names instead of numbers, though?  It helps make it clear who voted for what

Please quote this and add in your names to vote and any additional revision ideas, to make it easier for the GM.

I'm taking it that the designers of an idea aren't voting for themselves, to prevent everyone voting for their own ideas and failing to come to a consensus.

Sure.

And I think we already have metal shields. If we have enough metal to outfit one-third of our armies with full plate armour, we've surely been making metal shields for everyone already.

It's not in the equipment list. Right now, we only have wooden shields.

Fireball Talisman: Okay, maybe the heat shield wasn't such a good idea. This is a much better idea. Using the heat from the anti-magic amulets, our commanders can now throw (small) fireballs to burn off the heat! Not very effective compared to legions of apprentices spamming fireball, but a great morale booster, and it leads into stored spells!

Oh, my bad, I didn't see the wooden shields. Still, while metal shields will help us in battle, I think working on counter-magic magic will help us more in both the short and long term.

Besides, wooden shields are by no means ineffective. and our plate covers physical defense quite well.

That and we currently don't have a need for shields maybe if they start doing something funky to wood, we might need to switch but as of now now we have more pressing matters.

Revise longbow to be cheaper.

Getting hit by arrows fired from long-ranged, powerful bows is one thing. Getting hit by a rain of arrows fired from long-ranged, powerful bows is another. Furthermore, arrows are especially deadly against poorly-armoured troops, and the Moskurgers mainly field poorly-armoured troops, so removing this bottleneck will greatly increase the amount of kills we achieve.

Glory to Arstotzka.

I want to switch my vote so bad...

Edit: I'll switch my vote, cuz honestly the charms are way to small to be worth it.

[Playergamer]

you can't give every man in an army a longbow and a pike.

first of all, those are entirely different skill sets. second of all, those are both costly primary weapons.

Have I introduced you to my Pikebow design?

Or maybe units of pikemen protecting bowmen?  maybe that would work saner.

Your logic is bad, as it assumes that every single person in our army will be given a longbow. In truth, it just means we expand the number of archers we have from being a useful tool in the field to a large tactical advantage. Or do you think that every army to field large numbers of archers was stupid to do so? I'd really rather this not become a situation like the MC16 in the first Arms Race game.
